Prime Minister of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan Mullah Mohammad Hassan Akhund delivered his Eid message on Saturday and called on the people to strongly support the Islamic system because people’s support is very important in maintaining and strengthening a system.

“My message to the people is to firmly support their Islamic system, to cooperate with the officials in good works, because the cooperation of the people is very important in protecting and strengthening the system,” he said.

Akhund also asked the officials of the Islamic Emirate not to hesitate to help the people in any way.

He called for Muslims, especially pilgrims, to pray for the Palestinian people, and he emphasized solidarity for Palestine.
